Bitch I'm Madonna
Lyrics
Ooohh you're gonna love this
Ooohh you can't touch this
Ooohh cuz I'm a bad bitch
We hit the elevator right up to the rooftop
The bass is pumping, make me wanna screw the top off
Yeah we'll be drinking and nobody's gonna stop us
And we'll be kissing anybody that's around us
I just wanna have fun tonight
Put me under the flashing light
Ooohh wanna blow up this house tonight
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want, na nana na na
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want
Bitch I'm Madonna, bitch I'm Madonna, bitch I'm Madonna
We're jumpin' in the pool and swimmin' with our clothes on
Î poured a beer into my shoe and got my freak on
The neighbor's pissed and says he's gonna call the 5-0
If they show up then we are gonna give a good show
I just wanna go out tonight
Put me under the flashing light
Ooohh wanna blow up this house tonight
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want, na nana na na
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want
Bitch I'm Madonna, bitch I'm Madonna, bitch I'm Madonna
Who do you think you are
You can't mess with this lucky star
Ooohh who do you think you are
(Nicki Minaj:)
Poured up with my nose up
And that rosé up in that thinga
I'm froze up with my stove up
Cuz he eatin' like it's his dinner
I run shit, I don't fall back
Cuz I'm on track, I'm a sprinter
I'm bossed up, I got 'em awestruck
It's not a tuss up, I'm the winner
Beep beep, bitch move
Before I bang-bang with that uzz
That's Miu Miu on my shoes
Ain't got a thing left for me to prove
It's that bottle service all night
It's that pop and urban just right
It's that "go hard or go home" zone
Bitch, I'm Madonna, these ho's know
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want, na nana na na
We go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long
We get freaky if you want
Bitch I'm Madonna
Ooohh
we do it like this
Ooohh you're gonna love this
Ooohh you can't touch this
Ooohh cuz I'm a bad bitch
Who do you think you are (Cuz I'm a bad bitch)
Who do you think you are (Cuz I'm a bad bitch)
Who do you think you are (Cuz I'm a bad bitch)
Who do you think you are
(Nicki Minaj:)
"Go hard or go home zone" bitch
I'm Madonna, these ho's know

Album
Single
Part of the album pre-order on December 20, 2014, this song was one of the most popular downloads of the album on iTunes. On June 15, 2015, Madonna released it as third single. Remixes were commissioned to Sander Kleinenberg, Oscar G, and Rosabel. Aided by the popular music video, the single gave Madonna a come-back on Billboard's Hot 100, debuting at #84, her first entry in the chart for the Rebel Heart album. It was also Madonna's 46th Hot Dance #1 hit.
Video
Jonas Åkerlund shot the video in May 2015 on top of the Standard Hotel in NYC. After some delay, it premiered on Tidal on June 17th, and was added to VEVO the next day. The video pictures Madonna having a crazy party with her friend A-listers Diplo, Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Rita Ora, Chris Rock, and Alexander Wang. Madonna's sons Rocco and David also make a cameo appearance. Watch below to see Miley's middle fingers, Madonna kissing a shirtless hunk (Portuguese model Kevin Sampaio), topless women in a bathtub, breakdancing, sock puppets singing, Moschino fashion and much more. In its first 3 days on VEVO, the video racked up more than 10 million views. After a month, it became Madonna's most watched music video online and on August 28th it became VEVO Certified with more than 100 million views.
Tour
This song has made a surprise debut during an awesome performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in April 2015. The performance also featured Diplo and Madonna's son Rocco. The concept of the performance would later inspire the official music video.
"I just wanna have fun tonight!" That's how the universal empowering anthem Iconic is followed by Madonna's personal motto, Bitch I'm Madonna as the second song on the Rebel Heart Tour. Stripping away some layers of the Oriental Joan of Arc inspired costume, Madonna quickly shows the audience who's in charge. Nicki Minaj reprises her role from the video as Madonna does an intensive choreography featuring fans and Asian dancers. The show continues with Burning Up, the first ever incarnation of the "bitch, I'm Madonna" theme of her career.
